NICARAGUA: ¿¿EL FIN DE UNA ERA??
|
Resumen: Los datos del Centro de Tramites de las Exportaciones (CETREX) muestran que las exportaciones acumuladas al mes de mayo 2015 apenas habían crecido en 0.81% con respecto al mismo periodo de 2014. Es un desempeño exportador realmente triste. Esta cifra, y el análisis de la tendencia de las exportaciones, nos llevan a preguntarnos si no estamos presenciando el final de una era.
La marcada desaceleración de la economía china, junto al anémico crecimiento de la economía mundial, se han traducido en el fin del auge de las commodities, y en el caso de las economías latinoamericanas más dependientes de las exportaciones a China, esto ha significado caer al borde de la recesión.

El Banco Asiático de Infraestructura y el Banco del Sur: dos ejemplos de regionalismo financiero
|
Resumen:
El Banco Asiático de Inversión en Infraestructura (BAII), propuesto por China, y actualmente con 57 miembros fundadores. Se posiciona como una institución multilateral alternativa para el financiamiento de infraestructura de las economías emergentes, principalmente de Asia, desde la construcción de carreteras y aeropuertos hasta antenas de comunicación y viviendas económicas. A diferencia del banco del Sur, cuya preocupación era la recirculación del ahorro y las reservas internacionales dentro de Sudamérica, el banco Asiático está interesado en incorporar a países que tengan la tecnología para construir el tipo de infraestructura que Asia demanda para el siglo XXI.

President Biden has enlisted a dozen Asia-Pacific nations to join a new loosely defined economic bloc meant to counter China’s dominance and reassert American influence in the region five years after his predecessor withdrew the United States from a sweeping trade accord that it had negotiated itself. The alliance will bring the United States together with such regional powerhouses as Japan, South Korea and India to establish new rules of commerce in the fastest-growing part of the world and offer an alternative to Beijing’s leadership. But wary of liberal opposition at home, Mr. Biden’s new partnership will avoid the market access provisions of traditional trade deals, raising questions about how meaningful it will be. “We’re writing the new rules for the 21st-century economy,” Mr. Biden said on Monday in Tokyo during the launch for what he has termed the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework. “We’re going to help all of our country’s economies grow faster and fairer.” Fuente: |

For decades, the mainstream of both the Democratic and Republican parties favored expanding trade between the U.S. and other countries. Greater globalization, these politicians promised, would increase economic growth — and with the bounty from that growth, the country could compensate any workers who suffered from increased trade. But it didn’t work out that way. Instead, trade has contributed to the stagnation of living standards for millions of working-class Americans, by shrinking the number of good-paying, blue-collar jobs here. The incomes of workers without a bachelor’s degree have grown only slowly over the past few decades. Many measures of well-being — even life expectancy — have declined in recent years. All along, many politicians and experts continued to insist that trade was expanding the economic pie. And they were often right. But struggling workers understandably viewed those claims as either false or irrelevant, and they refused to support further expansions of trade. Fuente: |
